The name translates perfectly to &#8220;Easter Egg&#8221;, reflecting its beautiful shape and colorful stripes.<\/li>\n<li>\ud83c\udf3f <strong>Plant Habit:<\/strong> Indeterminate, extremely tall (easily exceeding 1.7 &#8211; 2 m \/ 5.5 &#8211; 6.5 ft) and vigorous. Performs exceptionally well both in greenhouses and outdoors (open ground). Known for being highly disease-resistant and unpretentious.<\/li>\n<li>\ud83c\udf45 <strong>Fruit Characteristics:<\/strong> Stunning red cocktail-sized tomatoes painted with striking golden\/yellow stripes. They are egg-shaped or barrel-shaped, typically weighing 40-50 g (1.5-1.8 oz). <strong>Fun fact:<\/strong> When sliced in half horizontally, the thick seed walls form a perfect, distinct cross (+).<\/li>\n<li>\ud83d\udc45 <strong>Flavor &amp; Texture:<\/strong> Very dense, fleshy, and firm with a thick (but not tough) skin. The taste is generally rated as very good to excellent (sweet and juicy).<\/li>\n<li>\ud83d\udca1 <strong>Pro Tips for Growing &amp; Usage:<\/strong> This is a top-tier canning (pickling) variety. Because of the firm walls and thick skin, the fruits do not burst when poured over with boiling water\/marinade, and they even retain their beautiful stripes in the jar! If you prefer soft, mushy pickled tomatoes, this might be too firm for you\u2014but for those who like a tomato with a &#8220;bite,&#8221; it is perfect.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"forum-post\">\n<div class=\"author-header\">\n<div class=\"forum-avatar\">K<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-name\">Katrinka (Ekaterina) <span class=\"author-stats\">\u2b50 Pro Grower (5,732 posts)<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"author-geo\">\ud83d\udccd Volgograd, Southern Russia (USDA Zone 5\/6)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<p>Natasha (Rusalka) shared the seeds with me.<br \/>\nA beautiful little tomato, sets fruit without skipping, 4-5 small fruits per cluster.<\/p>\n<p>It grew outdoors (open ground), didn&#8217;t get sick.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/20\/591-280614160230.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/20\/thumb_591-280614160230.jpeg\" alt=\"Green striped Easter Egg tomatoes on the vine\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/26\/591-220714051514.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/newforum\/galleries\/26\/thumb_591-220714051514.jpeg\" alt=\"Cluster of perfectly ripe red and gold striped Paskhalnoe Yaitso tomatoes\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"forum-post\">\n<div class=\"author-header\">\n<div class=\"forum-avatar\">V<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-name\">vikysia <span class=\"author-stats\">\u2b50 Pro Grower (2,864 posts)<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"author-geo\">\ud83d\udccd Unknown Location<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<p>I grew these outdoors, very beautiful, as if painted with gold (although I saw slightly different coloring on the internet).<\/p>\n<p>Sorry, I don&#8217;t remember who sent the seeds. :-[<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"forum-post\">\n<div class=\"author-header\">\n<div class=\"forum-avatar\">T<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-name\">tomatinka (Vera) <span class=\"author-stats\">\u2b50 Pro Grower (14,911 posts)<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"author-geo\">\ud83d\udccd Tyumen Region, Siberia (USDA Zone 3)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<p>Vikusya, are they cherry or cocktail size?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"forum-post\">\n<div class=\"author-header\">\n<div class=\"forum-avatar\">V<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-name\">vikysia <span class=\"author-stats\">\u2b50 Pro Grower (2,864 posts)<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"author-geo\">\ud83d\udccd Unknown Location<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<p>Vera, cocktail size, I will weigh them a bit later and write the weight. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p>I weighed them, they are 45-50 g (1.5-1.8 oz) each, seeds from Lenochka from Kostroma. :thx:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"forum-post\">\n<div class=\"author-header\">\n<div class=\"forum-avatar\">I<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-name\">irinka-malinka (Irina) <span class=\"author-stats\">\u2b50 Enthusiast (109 posts)<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"author-geo\">\ud83d\udccd Unknown Location<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<p>Hello everyone!

Unpretentious, not sickly. Boundlessly tall, just keeps setting and setting fruit (it&#8217;s a pity there&#8217;s nowhere higher to tie it up to). Very beautiful fruits. Planted it for the first time, fell in love. In theory, <em>Blush<\/em> (Stydlivy Rumyanets) is growing nearby, and it loses heavily compared to the Egg.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2019_07\/PANO_20190730_135926.jpg.1380f2aedba212886380b358eec720d6.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2019_07\/PANO_20190730_135926.thumb.jpg.782c45d86150266b9c1308067a2df365.jpg\" alt=\"Extremely tall Easter Egg tomato plant growing outdoors\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2019_07\/IMG_20190730_183734.jpg.e95f871645fad544aeba5dcacc5362b3.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2019_07\/IMG_20190730_183734.thumb.jpg.d8a8a864a2c5ce9069d074aecfd9785f.jpg\" alt=\"Thick clusters of red and yellow striped cocktail tomatoes\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2019_07\/PANO_20190730_144858.jpg.124a688ab9f22386e84a35ec16f82136.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2019_07\/PANO_20190730_144858.thumb.jpg.4b39e9b73bb3e3ccb7ea60dab9594991.jpg\" alt=\"Easter Egg tomato heavily outproducing nearby varieties\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"forum-post\">\n<div class=\"author-header\">\n<div class=\"forum-avatar\">V<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-name\">Valentina <span class=\"author-stats\">\u2b50 Enthusiast (825 posts)<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"author-geo\">\ud83d\udccd Abakan, Khakassia (Siberia)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<p>I also had the chance to grow Easter Egg. Grew in the greenhouse. Height about 2 meters (6.5 ft). Veeeery productive variety. Out of greed, I planted half the greenhouse with it in 2019. The fruits are dense. Tasty when eaten fresh, but I didn&#8217;t like them in pickling (canning). The fruits are very dense&#8230; you have to bite into them. But I like it differently&#8230; I prefer tomatoes that you can just take from the jar and &#8220;drink&#8221; (suck the soft flesh\/juice out)&#8230;. therefore I only plant no more than two bushes for fresh consumption. The variety is disease-resistant. And a handsome guy, of course.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2021_02\/IMG_20201209_014852.jpg.0e61f75b2fab3ad0f87f4d1b0f723e51.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2021_02\/IMG_20201209_014852.thumb.jpg.bb502f2838354102baad2cb29b573bc0.jpg\" alt=\"Easter Egg tomato cut horizontally to reveal four chambers\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2021_02\/1300013038_i(9).jpg.8f6db8876f139cae8aa9f710ac597998.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomat-pomidor.com\/uploads\/monthly_2021_02\/1300013038_i(9).thumb.jpg.1413e99ebc94886a362695b603668ab2.jpg\" alt=\"Fully ripe Easter Egg tomato cut in half vertically\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Quick Summary of Easter Egg (Paskhalnoe Yaitso) \ud83c\udf0d Origin: A highly popular commercial\/heirloom variety in Russia and Eastern Europe (Bulgaria, Ukraine).
